On
Behalf of the USC Chapter of the Society of Physics Students, we wish
to welcome you.

Although
SPS, as is commonly coined, has been in existence at USC since 1972, the
association has at times taken hiatus, with the departure of conventionally
undergraduate officers in pursuit of higher degrees. As your co-presidents,
it is our intent to establish a regiment more consistent with that passage
of time, in an effort to ensure continuity from one administration to
the next.

In
addition, it is our hope to have SPS serve not only as a close-knit community
of those interested in Physics, but of those interested in the sciences.
This goal, we hope to have fruition, through our monthly gatherings, which
will encapsulate a myriad of topics, including variations ranging from
lectures given by USC's 1994 Nobel Prize Winner, Dr. George Olah, trips
to NASA'sJet Propulsion Laboratory, to Graduate School Admissions dos
and doníts, and student researcher orations.

It
is with great ebullience that we look forward to serving you for the coming
year, in addition to hearing from you with all questions and concerns
we may address.
